This shipping policy describes our policies and procedures for shipping Products purchased on the Platforms. Please read and acknowledge the terms of this Shipping Policy before you use the Platform.
- Cost of Shipping as applicable is displayed against each product listing on the platform and involves no hidden cost other than displayed at the time of buying of product/ article.

- The shipping time will depend primarily on two factors:
- Item availability
- Shipping service
- Sellers are obligated to ship out/dispatch the Products within 5 days from the date of receiving the order. The Sellers are required to promptly cancel the orders in case(s) where the product is unavailable in inventory. If dispatch does not occur within the stipulated timeframe of 05 business days, our team shall cancel the order, initiate the refund, and inform the Sellers and Buyers of the same. However please kindly note that since the products displayed on the Platforms are manufactured/ delivered by artisans, NGOs, craftsmen, etc. across the length and breadth of India, shipping times may vary significantly for some products. However, we will try to get our products to you soon.
- Shipment Delays: The tentative time of delivery is mentioned on our website for each article/ good but there might be delays due to unavoidable circumstances beyond our control. No refunds or returns will be entertained on account of delay in delivery.
- Our shipping partner delivers products within 14 working days unless otherwise mentioned in the product details. **Shipping time is also subject to factors such as strikes or transport delays due to bad weather or caused by destination customs clearance processes, which are beyond our control.
- Orders can be shipped to only one address. To ship to multiple addresses, the Buyer must place a separate order for each address. Unless otherwise stated, all products on the website are in stock. Because each artisan's process is unique, shipping times may vary. Look for shipping information on the product page for individual shipping times.
** Some items carry a special shipping timeframe that may differ from that of other items.
** If your product carries a special shipping timeframe, you will be notified at the checkout step of your order on the website.
